Right, the $15/month deal is only for existing customers who are upgrading to that package. You have to get a quote as an existing customer, not new. I am glad I was randomly looking at the website because it wasn't communicated to me in any way.

Our only option is time Warner (Comcast I guess soon) it sucks so much balls. We pay $40 for 15/1 but we have to fight them every year because they bump the price up to $60 since we are on a promotional plan. Our only other option is the local phone company but they only have speeds up to 5/1 for $20.

I'd love to have a decent option like you all have.

Only option in Ankeny is Mediacom or CenturyLink (Qwest). CenturyLink is like 1.5 download, it's absolutely horrible.

I've been wondering how comcast is going to handle that takeover. Everyone says time warner service is shit and I know they have taken over time warner areas in the past and had to rebuild a lot of their existing infrastructure. I feel like it's going to be a ton of work.

Basic cable? That is super pricey. We were paying $90 for DirecTV (second tier package) and $50 for internet a couple months ago. I've since gotten DirecTV to lower my price and I went down a package. Once our contract is up with DTV (in a year) we will be dropping them.

Getting half of what I should. Talked to customer service and they said my cap doesn't go into affect until next billing cycle? That is half a month away. I may need to contact them again about the speed

Tyler wrote:Lol. Nice D+. But really, 15mbs is high enough for streaming and downloading. Do you feel like it's limiting you in anything?

Its fine when it works which is what makes me more upset than anything. Its not consistent at all with speed. Almost any time I try to stream ESPN I get cut off completely as if we didn't have internet but then everything else will work just fine.
